to meet 9-year-old evan moss and his dog, mindy. [ woman ] ring. ring. progresso. i just finished a bowl of your new light chicken pot pie soup and it's so rich and creamy... is it really 100 calories? let me put you on webcan... ...lean roasted chicken... and a creamy broth mmm i can still see you. >>> welcome back to "sgmd". i want to share a nice, uplifting story with you. it's about a boy, his dog, and the spirit of giving. 9-year-old evan moss is a boy who seemingly only cares about one simple thing. >> all of these are all filled with pokey mon cards. >> he started having these little shaky movements. it was one arm that would twitch a little bit. and last a few seconds. >> reporter: they took him to dozens of interests appointments and evan was eventually diagnosed with tuberis complex. it causes nonmalignant tumors to grow on the brain. it includes one of the hallmark symptoms, potentially life threatening seizures that can happen at any moment. since evan's parents can't watch over him all of the time, they began to look for an extra set of eyes, ears, and a nose. >> we were als

, and ferris professor at princeton university and author about president eisenhower evan thomas. >> what a great way to start it because dwight eisenhower, you always see presidents rise, you see presidents fall, and over the past four, five, six seven years i have found myself going back and reading ambrose's "eisenhower" over and over again. talk about -- let's start with eisenhower right now, my favorite president. it may change after i read your biography. >> exactly. or after we hear from meacham. >> or hear that he would kick dogs instead of go golf. but talk about eisenhower derided as dull and worthless and now we look back and say, my god, what he did over eight years pretty unbelievable. >> one of the great shots of all time was the kennedys on eisenhower. to make jack kennedy look young and vibrant, you had to make eisenhower look old and dull. that stuck. but what people didn't realize was that with a hidden hand, as a professor once said, he was doing a lot. what he was really doing was keeping us out of war. and you don't get credit for things that don't happen. but he for

. >> evan, according to the nbc news poll, a majority of republicans for the rest time what their leaders to compromise. will they? >> doesn't look like it right now. one of the problems is that it is not a fiscal cliff, it is a fiscal slope. it really is not a hard deadline. my guess is that it will slide into january andin some kind of inchoate fashion. >> nina, welcome back to groundhog day. are we headed towards armageddon? >> probably not are getting, because charles is right, they have such a weekend. in the end there will have to be a compromise. i think that deadlines make people focus the mind. boehner has told people not to plan anything in that week before christmas and new year's, and i sort of expect there will be a movement. >> mark, could you give us. on the politics? >> i will. let me be the discordant note. the republicans, as my colleagues point out, absolutely have a terrible hand. 30% favorable, 45% unfavorable. when asked to say a single word or phrase about either party, 65% give a negative word about republicans -- small, petty, and hencintransigent, whatever. the h

- vaccine parents in ashland who agree, like lorie anderson, whose adopted son evan is fully vaccinated. >> it's an outbreak waiting to happen. and so i... i don't just care about my own child. my child may be well protected because of his vaccination, but i hate to see people get hurt, injured, die, have to be quarantined, isolated because of an outbreak that is preventable with a vaccine. all they have to do is sign an exemption, and their kid is exempt from immunization before they go to school. i will try not to be angry. i hope it doesn't get contentious. it will, though. it will get contentious if there's an outbreak. if vaccinated children start to get breakthrough disease because of the high rate of unvaccinated children, it probably will get ugly. >> narrator: the cdc tracks outbreaks of infectious diseases around the country from its center in atlanta. in 2008, for example, there were numerous small pockets of infection. one involving measles erupted in an under-vaccinated area of san diego. like most measles outbreaks, it came from abroad. it began when an infected seven- yea

. minus 11 in kiev. further down toward the south pacific ocean we've been tracking severe cyclone evan. this system has produced 200 millimeters of rain. the good news is that it should weaken and go down towards the south. conditions will gradually improve as we head intoheext seral days. here is your extended forecast around the globe. >>> one more story before we go. this year's early sightings of santa claus have him not on a sleigh but a bicycle peddling his way across town. hundreds of father christmass got on their bikes this weekend and took to the streets of rome. more than 300 cyclists toured the city's most celebrating location. they spread festive cheer around the italian capital. >> translator: it's a great way to enjoy ourselves with our friends and to celebrate christmas. >> there's a serious side of the event too. organizers say they want to raise funds for children with cancer and spread the work that cycling can help tackle rome's traffic congestion and air pollution. looks like a very merry time there. that wraps up this edition of "newsline." thanks for joining us.

winter day. the storm coming on saturday will not be a blockbuster evan. do not look for them to close all the streets and all that stuff. we will get some accumulation out of it. it is just hard to say exactly how much. going into 2013, the rain will be pretty quiet. >> thank you, tony. thank you, pete. thank you for joining us. we will see you back here

in cupertino in april. >> let's talk to evan. evan, the sourdough is worth it for new. >> oh, yes, it is the best around. >> reporter: i will bring some of it back if i have not eaten it all. but for now brian flores, ktvu channel 2 morning news. >> he has been there since 4:30 he is probably hungry by now. >>> we have a car in a ditch and a lot of people use this is the a shortcut so you could be experiencing some delays. and at the off ramp, there is a car in the bushes. let's look at this, no delays right here but we want to look at the bay bridge which closed because of a police rex and up next, you can see metering lights are on and this is your commute back up to mcarthur maze and san francisco. those taillights are going westbound not as bad as it usually is towards sunny veil and right now it is moving a little bit. 6:39 here is steve. >> thank you tara. >> okay. >> make sure she is there. >> a couple of breaks in the clouds, it is clearing and there is a northwest breeze kicking up in the san mateo coast and that will prevent a lot of widespread really thick fog. there ha
